The zoning regulations read that each mobile home in any district shall have
sanitary and drainage facilities approved by the Planning and Zoning Commis-
sion, County Health Dept., Building Inspector and City Engineer. Also, the
mobile home must bear the State of Florida Standards Seal to be permitted
anywhere in Ocoee, The ordinance prohibits permanent use of a mobile home
for a business. Following the reading of the ordinance, Mr. Miller left
and further discussion ceased.

annexation and zoning. Dick Davis brought pre - liminary plans before the
board for a mobile home park to be located on Crown Point Road and Fuller
Cross Road. There was much discussion on the request of annexing the
Fuller Cross portion into the city. Mr. Bowness said that legal advise
would be needed on the subject and the City Attorney would have to be con-
tacted before any action could be taken.

have a work session Tuesday night of Sept. 3.
